Arrange o-nitro, p-nitro, m-nitró benzoic acids in increasing acid strength.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the increasing acid strength of o-nitro, p-nitro, and m-nitro benzoic acids, we need to analyze the effects of the nitro group (-NO2) on the acidity of benzoic acid. The nitro group is a strong electron-withdrawing group, and its position relative to the carboxylic acid group (-COOH) will influence the acid strength. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Understand the Structure of Benzoic Acid:** - Benzoic acid has a carboxylic acid group (-COOH) attached to a benzene ring. The acidity of benzoic acid is influenced by substituents on the benzene ring. 2. **Identify the Positions of Nitro Groups:** ...
